Game is fun. Elitist community is unbearable.
I'm too old to argue with kids about lanes and defend myself for not beeing good enough to be in their match.

I know all the mobas have this issue, but honestly, thats a frail defense.

Really cute game,

it's a rather detailed simulation about making booze. A great game to just have a chill time with and vibe, maybe listen to a podcast on the side.
For the future I hope they add some kind of endless mode, so it let's me explore more on my own and less tutorial-y. However I get that that's hard - some people want more tutorial, others want less.
Great game, that still needs some polish and QoL changes, but I trust the devs are on it (:

Imagine you buy a 3$ game - it gets updated constantly with new content - it's mindless fun and there is no dlcs or pay to win mechanics. Sounds unreal.

Really fun game, especially to play on a stream.
Does everything make sense? No
But I enjoyed it and it took roughly 1.5 hours to beat. I hope we get a 2nd chapter soon.

This is the most random game I've ever played. But it was a lot of fun :D

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥.

This is probably the best game since witcher 3 and death stranding.
It's been a while since I had a game that I just didn't stop playing.

Is it hard? kinda, but not really. It takes a bit to get used to the playstyle of Elden Ring. If the game gets too hard for you, you can always decide to make it easier for yourself. There is countless ways to increase your damage or take a different approach to a boss. It can be really hard if you try to slam your head against the wall, but it can also be surprisingly easy if you (ab)use weakspots.

quick update after 100+ hours.
Still great - nearly got all achievements :3
Can't wait for DLCs or a Sequel.

This Review Shows the changes in my opinion on this game over the time played and the years in development.

Underrated and probably the best sound design you have ever witnessed. Play with decent Headphones!

850 hours later - still fun. Not perfect, but unique and very fun. If only we could have better servers (:

1500 hours later & BB Economy Update Change - People are complaining about getting less free premium currency. In 95% of games you don't get any free premium currency, but we've been spoiled. I feel like no one knows how much money it costs to keep a game up and running, to pay a studio full of employees. Rather let them make "unnecessary skins" more expensive, then dabble into gambling or other pay2win mechanics.
"But the game isn't free to play" - yes, but the price is extremely low. If you bought it for the full price you probably got a couple thousand hours in it anyways. If you have the slightest bit of self control, you can still get every battlepass they will release for free.

2000 hours later and after the 1896 update:
Honestly, I don't enjoy the game much anymore. I won't click "not recommended" because it might just be that after 2k hours the game gave everything it had. The changes they made are mostly recieved positive, I don't like them. I don't like the map, the ui, the mmr changes, the performance issues, the ratty gameplay of everyone, the fact that in 8/10 cases I'm unable to see my opponents clearly because it's either super dark or dusty/misty. It wasn't like that previously, it got worse - or maybe I got worse. Doesn't matter much, my time with this games is likely coming to an end.

Coming back to it, stutters got worse, menu lags now, audio doesn't function. I wish they just rolled back the last 10 patches. Game just progressively gets worse with every update. At this point I can't even recommend it despite the hours of enjoyment I got out of it. I've played early alpha games that ran smoother than hunt in its current state.

After roughly 9 more months, they actually did something amazing for performance. Game runs better than ever for me, stutters are gone and I can get a solid 144fps without DLSS. Idk what they did, but at least I can recommend the game again as it's functionality is restored.
They still sucked the soul out of the ip and I wish I could go and play old hunt, but it is what it is.

Edit after some changes.

Super fun game, filled with a ton of crybabys that only play half of it.
Feeling entitled to dictate the playstyle of the other side.

But don't let that get to you. You can skip the post game chat and everything will be fine.
Also play killer and survivor, otherwise you'll become a crybaby very fast :)

This game sets a new standard for the genre. Explosive action, controls feel great, story is interesting and the characters feel alive. And after every level you have a nice reprieve, hanging out with your <quote> pet mechanic </quote>.
Great to see the IP got some new life in it's veins and hopefully we'll see more where that came from.

Surprisingly fun Trade and Farm Sim. The games feel short and lively. The different factions have cool features and I've been playing this game on and off for a while now. Not all hours are logged, since I played it in offline mode on train rides too.
The kind of game you need while listening to a podcast or just chill with music.
